Blue Bait

 | By Seamus on 9/21/2012 10:15:30 PM | Views (320)

"Blue Bait"
Hook: Daichi 2220 sz4-10
Bead: 5/32 gold or med cone
Thread: Uni thread 6/0 white
Tail: Grizzly Marabou
Body: Blue Estaz
Hackle: Grizzly

This is simply another wooly bugger variation tied in a very effective color scheme. Steelhead seem to pounce on this pattern any time of year in any water condition but excels in slightly stained water combined with a sunny day. For darker days try black, Olive, or Purple.

Place bead on hook, lay down thread base and tie in tail. Tail length should be as long as hook shank.
Tie in Grizzly hackle at the tip.

Tie in estaz.


Wrap estaz forward, Tie off, followed by hackle.

Done deal. Don't be afraid to try in any combination that works for you. The key is the grizzly hackle tail and grizzly hackle which give this fly nice contrast to catch the fishes eye. I'm a big fan of olive, and purple estaz bodies as well.
